| Klipsch Cornwall III You wouldn't find any Cornwall 3's in thrift shops, that's the current production model, if they are indeed still making them - I believe the company was sold a few years back and is concentrating more on their home theater stuff now. You might se... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Hi Orpheus - that cover of Jaws is hilarious, I had never heard that before. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Bobby McFerrin is also well known as a huge supporter of his fellow musicians of all stripes. A very good guy as well as good musician. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Orpheus, that was definitely on the bizarre side. Even more so, though, would be the recording with that group plus four trombones that was mentioned in the comment below!! I'll have to ask our harp player if she has ever heard of Dorothy Ashby. I... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Hi Orpheus - studio musicians and pit musicians would have pretty much a completely opposite existence, musically speaking - they are not at all the same. A top Broadway pit musician, for example, will typically play the same show 8 times a week f... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Orpheus, you bring up a great topic for discussion. Unfortunately, I may be away from this board for several days - about to have one of the busiest weeks of my entire season. Also, you have now touched on Frogman's area of professional expertise,... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Hope you are well soon, Orpheus! | |

| Primaluna prologue 2 based system upgrade You might try some horn speakers, perhaps something from the Classic line of Klipsch, such as the Heresey's. | |
| Do you know why I recently bought a new record that turned out to be warped. However, this has only happened to me once ever, with new vinyl anyway. And I was able to exchange it, so it was no big deal. Just about all of the new vinyl I have purchased in the last... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Good to hear everything went well, Orpheus! | |
| New cartridge for Rega P3-24 Hi Adam - my brother just put the Dynavector on his Nottingham table that has a Rega arm, and it sounds quite good. I know many Rega owners love the Dynavector. Be aware that it may require buying some spacers to install a different cartridge on t... |
